Chapter 37 Nosebleed
How could she have such an idea?!
How could he give her such an illusion? !
Gu Qingye rarely suffers from insomnia.
When the wake-up call sounded in the early morning, he opened his eyes quickly, showing no sign that he had only slept for two hours.
The flag-raising ceremony was still on time, and the spirited attitude was enough to prove that Lu Youyou's "kindness" was too effective, but when I thought about the reason for this kindness...
He gave in to give her time to adjust, but was mistakenly believed to be incompetent.
He turned on the tap and the cold water poured down his head, flowing down his neck and into his shoulder blades. However, the icy touch could not quench the restlessness in his heart.
Gu Qingye rarely hesitated. He stood in the yard, his eyes seeming to penetrate the glass and thick curtains.
So, should he explain, or go back on his word?
—————————
In the camp, Gu Qingye went to the office first and locked the manuscript in the drawer.
Along the way, the young soldiers saluted and he saluted back. This scene appeared every day. However, today, everyone who met him felt like they were shivering.
"Who has offended the King of Hell again?"
"How should I know? I'm warning you all, be careful and don't drag others down with you if you want to die!"
Before they could come up with a result, Gu Qingye had already put on a full set of training equipment and came to the training ground.
"Everyone, carry the weight for five kilometers, start now."
Everyone was feeling sad, but they only dared to feel sad in their hearts. Didn’t they see that the battalion commander was the one running ahead?
Although Gu Qingye would also participate in training on weekdays, he inexplicably felt like a volcanic eruption today.
However, just when everyone was on high alert, fearing that they would fail to perform well and be singled out as an example, they witnessed a real volcanic eruption with their own eyes.
"Gu Qingye, step out!"
Jiang Tong was going to a meeting at the division headquarters and happened to pass by the training ground. He was startled by just a casual glance.
Gu Qingye was actually running in the front with a nosebleed, running very fast, as if nothing had happened!
Gu Qingye stopped when he heard the call, turned around and told others to continue, then quickly stepped out of the line.
Just like that, the image of the battalion commander bleeding profusely exploded into the eyes of the soldiers of the Third Battalion.
The orderly brought a towel as quickly as possible, and as soon as Gu Qingye stood still, Jiang Tong reached out and blocked his nose.
"What's wrong with you? You don't even know you have a nosebleed?"
Gu Qingye subconsciously wanted to hide, but was stunned when he heard this. He took off the towel and saw that there was blood.
He was about to salute in reply, but Jiang Tong stopped him with his hand: "Alright, alright, stop the bleeding first. If you feel uncomfortable, go to the hospital. Training is important, but health is equally important!"
"yes!"
Gu Qingye wiped off the blood and raised his head, feeling the heat in his body that had not yet subsided. The image of Lu Youyou appeared in his mind again.
Holding the bowl with a beautiful smile, she said, "This soup nourishes the lungs, nourishes the kidneys, come on, drink it!"
Thinking of this, the nosebleed that had just stopped showed signs of surging again.
"Hey, Lao Gu, what kind of style is this?"
Jiang Huaili and Ding Tiesheng walked over here together. The Second Battalion was going out for training today, and the two of them were going to join the main force from here.
Jiang Huaili came closer and saw the red plum dots on the towel. He immediately asked, "What happened? Did you hurt your nose?"
"No." Gu Qingye felt that the bleeding had stopped, so he took off the towel.
Jiang Huaili took a closer look and found that there was no bruise or redness on his face, so he certainly didn't look injured.
Ding Tiesheng's eyes flickered and he chuckled, "He must be getting irritated. It's normal to be a little agitated in the hot weather. But Captain Gu just got married, so this shouldn't happen. You should go to the health center to have a checkup. If there are other problems, don't delay."
Gu Qingye's dark eyes glanced at Ding Tiesheng.
Jiang Huaili didn't respond. He really cared about Gu Qingye's health: "Be careful. If you feel uncomfortable, go see a doctor. Don't take it lightly."
Gu Qingye hummed: "Just do your thing, the people from the second battalion have already marched over there."
Jiang Huaili walked a few steps and said, "Take care of your health!"
Gu Qingye nodded and waved his hand to tell him to leave quickly.
In just one morning, the fact that Gu Qingye was training with a nosebleed and got smeared in the face by the team leader became quite big news, and many people came to greet him.
Especially the big brother Wang Youcai.
"Your wife knows how to make soup, so ask her to make you some mung bean soup, or soak dandelions in water. Just drink it for a few days."
Gu Qingye smiled bitterly to himself.
There are soups that can clear away heat. I just drank bitter gourd, soybean and bone soup a few days ago, but Lu Youyou's cooking may have some miraculous effect. It doesn't seem to have the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying, but it shines as a health-preserving and tonic.
There is only income and no expenditure every day, even the gods cannot stop it.
Not long after Wang Youcai left, he came back and actually gave him a bag of dried dandelions.
Gu Qingye pondered for a moment, then stood up and made a cup of tea.
During lunch break, he rebound the manuscript before taking it to the kitchen. Zhou Dazhu's powerful arms, which could lift a large iron pot weighing dozens of kilograms, patted Gu Qingye's shoulder.
"Comrade Xiaolu hasn't come over these days. I wanted to ask her but was afraid of disturbing her. I didn't expect her to come so quickly. That's great, that's great!" Zhou Dazhu was extremely happy.
Although he was only the squad leader of the kitchen squad, he had served in the army for decades and had more seniority than Wang Youcai. Calling him Comrade Xiaolu was truly endearing.
Gu Qingye felt a secret sense of pride in his heart, as if he had won a battle.
"She has been working on this for the past half month, but I still need to discuss the operational issues with you in person. She specifically told me not to forget to tell you this."
Zhou Dazhu smiled and said, "You are being modest, aren't you? We should take the initiative to learn from Comrade Xiaolu."
Although Zhou Dazhui has a lot of experience, he has a keen desire to learn. Even though Lu Youyou is a military wife and is younger than his daughter, he is still able to humbly ask for advice. He truly devotes his whole heart to his work.
Zhou Dazhui spent the whole afternoon immersed in books. Before he had finished reading, the Logistics Department took the original copy away, saying that they would give him a copy in two days.
How could Zhou Dazhui agree to this? He immediately rushed to Zheng Lianggong's office. Zheng Lianggong had to persuade the old squad leader to leave after much persuasion.
Although Lu Youyou said that she was organizing her grandfather's teachings and deeds, she was able to write them down in a coherent manner. This is not just the work of a simple recorder or porter; it requires real skill.
The Logistics Department has no bad intentions. It's a rare opportunity for a talented person to emerge among the military wives. Shouldn't they verify it and then make the best use of it?
It is not enough to just write a "memoir".
When Gu Qingye returned home in the evening, the aunties in the staff quarters started teasing him when they saw him.
"Captain Gu is back. What delicious food has your wife made? It smells so good! Here, I'll eat with the aroma!"
The aunt held the bowl filled with vegetables and eggplants, took a breath of air and took a bite of rice.
Gu Qingye curled his lips, not knowing what to say.
He also smelled the fragrance coming from home. He originally couldn't recognize several Chinese medicinal herbs, but now he can distinguish the flavor of Codonopsis pilosula among them.
